I just replaced the 360K B: drive in my original, genuine IBM AT with a 3.5", 1.44 Mbyte drive. Note this is the ORIGINAL AT - 6 Mhz, 20 Mbyte hard disk, old keyboard, etc. I've put the following into CONFIG.SYS: devparam=^A/d:1 /s:18 However, the drive will only read and write 720K diskettes. It won't format or recognize previously formatted diskettes at 1.44 Mbyte. What's wrong, and what do I do to fix it? Rumor has it it's a bios that won't support this capacity. For what it's worth. -- Dave Anderer danderer@sun.udel.edu (302) 451-8805 Instructional Technology, University of Delaware, Newark, De. 19716 "Sinners can repent; stupid is forever."
